Famous quotes containing the words religious beliefs, religious and/or beliefs:

    It’s almost impossible to deal with a crazy man, except that he does have religious beliefs, and the world of Islam will be damaged if a fanatic like him should commit murder in the name of religion against 60 innocent people.
    Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)

    In the dominant Western religious system, the love of God is essentially the same as the belief in God, in God’s existence, God’s justice, God’s love. The love of God is essentially a thought experience. In the Eastern religions and in mysticism, the love of God is an intense feeling experience of oneness, inseparably linked with the expression of this love in every act of living.
    Erich Fromm (1900–1980)

    A man must not swallow more beliefs than he can digest.
    Havelock Ellis (1859–1939)
